The latest Intel RST(e) drivers, which natively do fully support Intel 7-Series chipsets, are the v13.1.0.1058 ones. Nevertheless I would install the Intel RST(e) drivers v13.2.8.1002, which are the latest and according to my tests the best from the v13 platform.
The related RAID drivers are installable (due to the universal extern DeviceID DEV_2822)], but are running neither absolutely stable nor performant with Intel 7-Series chipset systems.

Thank you, I just grabbed 13.2.8.1002 and will run with those. Thanks again!
The above mentioned drivers are WHQL certified and usable with all Windows Operating Systems from Win7 up. Only Intel 100-Series/C230 Chipsets, 200-Series Chipsets, X299 Chipsets and other Systems with an Intel Skylake or KabyLake CPU are natively supported by these drivers.
The related 32bit drivers and the Drivers & Software Set are not yet available.
Thanks to Pacman resp. Station-Drivers for the source package.
Good luck with these new drivers! Dieter (alias Fernando)

Does this mean you also recommend a 13.2.x series orom for Z77?
It depends on which Intel RAID driver you are running or want to use. The answer is “Yes”, if it is any Intel RST(e) RAID driver of the v13.2 series (either the Win10 in-box or the v13.2.8.1002 WHQL driver). The first step is to find out, which Intel RAID driver is running the best with your Z77 chipset system. After having done that, I recommend to choose the matching Intel RAID ROM resp. EFI RAID BIOS module.

Notes:
The above mentioned drivers are digitally signed by Intel and usable with all Windows Operating Systems from Win7 up. Only Intel 100-Series/C230 Chipsets, 200-Series Chipsets, X299 Chipsets and other Systems with an Intel Skylake or KabyLake CPU are natively supported by these drivers.

Not sure what’s going on for me seeing the Intel RST(e) Drivers & Software Set v15.7.3.1019 is meant to be WHQL set and signed. I have to create a restore point before installing them an every time I have to use that restore point to get my system working again. Any ideas?
As I have clearly stated >here< and >here<, these Intel RST(e) drivers v15.7.3.1019 are not WHQL certified. It makes no difference, whether you install the “pure” driver manually or by running the installer of the Drivers & Software Set. If you want any comment from our side regarding the usability of these brandnew drivers for your system, you should let us know the chipset of your mainboard and the SATA mode (AHCI/RAID) of your Intel SATA Controller.
@MrRhade : Thanks for your feedback. Please add the chipset and SATA mode of your system as well. This will help other users.
The above mentioned drivers are WHQL certified by Microsoft and usable with all Windows Operating Systems from Win7 up. Only Intel 100-Series/C230 Chipsets, 200-Series Chipsets, X299 Chipsets and other Systems with an Intel Skylake or KabyLake CPU are natively supported by these drivers.

new: Intel RSTe Drivers & Software Set v5.2.0.1212 for Win7-10 dated 06/21/2017
Notes:
The packages contain the Intel RSTe AHCI and sAHCI drivers v5.2.0.1194 dated 06/13/2017. They are WHQL certified by MS and only suitable for Intel C600/C600+/C220/C220+ Series Chipset AHCI/sAHCI systems like X79 and X99. All Windows Operating Systems from Win7 up to Win10 are supported.
There are no 32bit Intel RSTe drivers v5.2.0.1194 available. 32bit Operating Systems are obviously not supported by these drivers and by this Drivers & Software Set.

Who says that resp. what lets you think that? If you should wonder, why the newest Intel RST/RSTe drivers are not listed within the Intel Download Center, the reason is quite simple: The chipset/driver manufacturer is not responsable for the Consumer Support. This is the task of the mainboard manufacturer resp. the “Original Equipment Manufacturer” (OEM). Intel stopped the production of own mainboards in 2015. Since that time Intel’s Download Center doesn’t offer anymore the latest Intel Chipset Device INF Sets and RST/RSTe drivers for the public. Nevertheless Intel still releases all their finally compiled and digitally signed drivers to all mainboard manufacturers/OEMs. Unfortunately only very few of them offer these new drivers within their Support pages, because they are not very interested in putting much effort and wasting much time in testing all new available drivers with all their products.
Fernando, I bought a Kingston KC1000 SSD and my GA-B75M-D3H REV 1.0 latest BIOS version F15 does not recognize the SSD during boot. Is there anything I can do? my processor is i7-3770. DDR3 memory.
EDIT by Fernando: Absolutely irrelevant quoted post removed (to save space)
Your Kingston KC1000 SSD uses the NVMe protocol and its NVMe Storage Controller cannot use any Intel AHCI/RAID driver. If you want to boot off your NVMe SSD, you should read the start post of >this< thread and follow the related guide.
